'Cultural translation' thus reveals a fruitful angle of approach of the global Middle Ages. Challenging the traditionally Eurocentric conception of medieval studies, the articles collected here explore the translation of medieval knowledge in the context of the greater Mediterranean, the near East, South and East Asia, and the Americas in the longue durée up to the digital age.13 It is one of the research foci of the Defining the Global Middle Ages Research Network, sponsored by the British AHRC project ‘Translating Cultures’ .5enPublisher Copyright: © 2018 Australian and New Zealand Association for Medieval and Early Modern Studies.
